This Week at ADB, Inc., 1-7 December 2013

Steve Cole reports:

This was a week of steady work on many
projects. The weather this week was moderate until Wednesday when it
turned very cold, dropping to 9°F on Saturday. The spam storm mostly
remained at something under 200 per day.

Steve Cole worked on
Communique and Hailing Frequencies,Traveller Prime Directive (reviewing things Mike West
and Jean were doing), ACTASF (reviewing Tony L. Thomas's draft
revisions to the rules), wrote some blogs, ordered a new production
mold for the revised 2500 King Eagle, reviewed several ships (Orion
DW, Tholian TK5, Tholian DN) and sent instructions to Mongoose to
modify them (or in the case of the Klingon D7C set the design aside
for later), looked for new 2500 stands, and investigated doing larger
prestige scale miniatures.

Tony L. Thomas produced a better list of the
changes needed for ACTASF1.2, revised all turn modes, damage scores,
and shield ratings.
